The thoughts of...https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2018...r-donald-trump

Even among some of Donald Trump’s allies, there is a sense of astonishment at the White House’s handling of Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation. “It’s like no one took down the Gambino family,” Steve BannontoldChris Whipple in a book adaptation the Hive published this week. “Mueller’s doing a roll-up just like he did with the Gambinos. [Paul] Manafort’s the caporegime, right? And [Rick] Gates is a made man!” Indeed, Mueller, who led the F.B.I. takedown of the infamous crime family in the early 1990s, famously cutting a deal with Sammy the Bull to flip on mob boss John Gotti, appears to be executing what some have called a “Gambino-style roll-up.” First, he flipped former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos; then, he turned ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn. Now, CNN reports, Mueller appears to be in the final stages of a plea deal with Gates, Trump’s former deputy campaign chairman and a longtime business associate of Manafort, who was indicted alongside him last fall.
The White House reportedly views Gates’s testimony as a threat to Manafort, and not to the president. “There'd be no anxiety here,” a White House official told CNN when asked about the possibility that Gates will cut a deal. The charges against the two, after all, had nothing do with Russian collusion; the 12 counts included failure to register as a foreign agent, false and misleading statements related to that registration, and seven counts of improper foreign financial reporting—all as part of a broader conspiracy to launder millions of dollars from their consulting work in Ukraine into the United States. Manafort has pleaded not guilty, and is fighting the charges. But Gates, who has also pleaded not guilty, has been grappling with financial troubles and difficulties with his legal team. According to CNN, he has been in plea negotiations with Mueller’s team of F.B.I. investigators for about a month, and has already given an interview in which he would have revealed any knowledge he might have of criminal activity that could be traded for leniency or immunity in sentencing.
What this means for the White House isn’t exactly clear. While Manafort’s reign as campaign chairman and Gates’s role as his deputy were short-lived, the duo oversaw a series of events and interactions that have come under intense scrutiny in the ongoing Justice Department probe. Manafort and Gates ran the Trump campaign in the summer of 2016, during which Donald Trump Jr. held his infamous Trump Tower meeting with a Russian lawyer. They were also on board during the Republican National Convention, where a number of Trump campaign officials and surrogates met with Russian officials and campaign officials altered the language of the official G.O.P. platform on Ukraine to be more sympathetic to Russian interests. While Manafort was replaced by Bannon after The New York Times alleged that handwritten ledgers showed millions in undisclosed cash payments designated for Manafort in Ukraine—a claim Manafort denies—Gates continued to work with the Trump campaign through the transition, and served as a senior official on Trump’s inaugural committee.

It is entirely possible that Gates is only providing Mueller with additional evidence against Manafort, and not against Trump. But news of his cooperation should still worry the White House. As he did in the Gotti case, Mueller has moved systematically through the lower ranks of Trumpworld up through the president’s inner circle in his efforts to shake out the truth. In December, Hope Hicks—the White House communications director and Trump’s longest serving adviser—reportedly met with the special prosecutor’s team. And Bannon, who served as White House senior strategist after the election, sat for approximately 20 hours’ worth of interviews over the span of multiple days earlier this week. A request for an interview with the president himself is likely next. All the while, Mueller is presumably gathering evidence he can leverage higher up the food chain, and potentially against Trump. While Gates may only flip on Manafort, it is entirely possible that Manafort might then be compelled to give up something better.

For now, the most significant facts in the case remain under lock. Adam Schiff, the top ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said Tuesday that the panel has discovered evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians during the 2016 campaign, as well as evidence of subsequent obstruction. “There is certainly an abundance of non-public information that we’ve gathered in the investigation,” Schiff told reporters. Whether that information is actionable remains to be seen. According to the White House’s own budget request, the administration expects Mueller’s investigation to continue well into next year, despite repeated assurances from the president’s legal team that it was approaching a conclusion. If Gates has the goods, perhaps it will end sooner.

A...GENEVA — When it comes to cooking fresh lobster, the Swiss are now saying: We feel your pain.
A law goes into effect March 1 that bans the common cooking method of tossing a live lobster
into a big pot of boiling water, quickly killing the tasty crustacean. That practice is being
outlawed because the Swiss say it's cruel and lobsters can sense pain.

The first national legislation of its kind in the world calls for a more humane death for
lobsters, by “rendering them unconscious” before plunging them into scalding water.

Two methods are recommended: Electrocution or sedating the lobster by dipping it into salt water
and then thrusting a knife into its brain. face)(*^%

A former Playmate, who says she has been emboldened by the #MeToo movement and declining health, has confirmed to The New Yorker that she authored an eight-page, hand-written document about her alleged affair with Donald Trump that the magazine said was quietly buried by the National Enquirer after buying exclusive rights to it.

The deal, which netted Karen McDougal $82,500, has prevented her from discussing the alleged relationship with Trump.

McDougal, who was judged runner-up for "Playmate of the '90s," allegedly met Trump in 2006 at the Playboy mansion after Trump had been married to Slovenian model Melania Knauss for less than two years.

She spoke to writer Ronan Farrow, who has written recently about sexual abuse in Hollywood, but was circumspect about details regarding Trump. She acknowledged, however, that she wrote the account of the alleged affair, which Farrow said he obtained from John Crawford, a friend of McDougal's.

The Wall Street Journal, four days before the 2016 presidential election, reported that American Media Inc., the publisher of the National Enquirer, had paid $150,000 for exclusive rights to McDougal’s story, which it never ran. Buying the rights to a story in order to bury it is a practice that many in the tabloid industry call “catch and kill.”

David Pecker, CEO and chairman of A.M.I., has described Trump as a personal friend.

McDougal, choosing her words carefully, said the emergence of the #MeToo movement and health problems, which she blames on breast implant removal last year, has prompted her to be more conflicted about the moral compromises of silence, The New Yorker says.

“As I was sick and feeling like I was dying and bedridden, all I could do was pray to live. But now I pray to live right, and make right with the wrongs that I have done,” she told Farrow. She also noted the impact women have had in recent months by describing abuses by high-profile men. “I know it’s a different circumstance,” she said, “but I just think I feel braver.”

A.M.I. said, according to the magazine, an amendment to McDougal’s contract — signed after Trump won the election — allowed her to “respond to legitimate press inquiries” regarding the alleged affair. The company said that it did not print the story because it did not find it credible.

McDougal, in her first on-the-record comments about the handling of her story by The National Enquirer, declined to discuss the details of her relationship with Trump, for fear of violating the agreement, the magazine said.

She did say, however, that she regretted signing the contract. “It took my rights away,” McDougal told Farrow. “At this point I feel I can’t talk about anything without getting into trouble, because I don’t know what I’m allowed to talk about. I’m afraid to even mention his name.”

In the handwritten account of McDougal's story, obtained by The New Yorker, she wrote that Trump "immediately took a liking to me" after their meeting at Hugh Hefner's mansion, following a taping of Trump TV show The Apprentice. She wrote that their first date was dinner in a private bungalow at the Beverly Hills Hotel that allegedly turned intimate.

“I was so nervous! I was into his intelligence + charm. Such a polite man,” she wrote. “We talked for a couple hours — then, it was “ON”! We got naked + had sex.” As she was leaving, according to the account, McDougal writes he offered her money, which she said made her sad, and she declined.

A.M.I. paid her $150,000 for her story. McDougal ended up with $82,500 after other intermediaries to the deal took a cut from the payment, the magazine said. The deal also included promises to publish columns by her and for other appearances in magazines. After Trump won the presidency, however, A.M.I.’s promises largely went unfulfilled, according to McDougal.

The magazine said her story "provides a detailed look at how Trump and his allies used clandestine hotel-room meetings, payoffs, and complex legal agreements to keep affairs— sometimes multiple affairs he carried out simultaneously — out of the press."

The New Yorker said a White House spokesperson said in a statement that Trump denies having had an affair with McDougal. “This is an old story that is just more fake news," according to the statement. "The president says he never had a relationship with McDougal.”

The article comes in the wake of a report in The New York Times that a porn star, Stephanie Clifford, known as Stormy Daniels, was paid $130,000 by Trump's personal lawyer only days before the election as part of a non-disclosure agreement. While Trump lawyer Michael Cohen confirms he "facilitated" the payment to Daniels, he has not disclosed its purpose.

While Daniels has not discussed her alleged relationship with Trump since signing the deal, In-Touch magazine last month published salacious details of an alleged affair with Trump based on earlier interviews with the magazine.

Trump gets indicted for collusion or a variation of the sort - I'm gone for 2 years.

Trump gets indicted for obstruction or a variation of the sort - I'm gone for 2 years.

Trump doesn't get indicted for obstruction or a variation of the sort - You're gone for 1 year.

The bets are cumulative and all inclusive. Trump gets charged on both, I'm gone for four years.
Trump gets charged with neither, you're gone for two years.

To be fair, it's probably as delusional as the Russian election interference hoax. Just on the other side.

A pauper who files countless frivolous lawsuits, hoping to cash in. Usually an older person who doesn't have work income, and will prey on widows for a place to live. Often a die-hard liberal, with a less than average IQ, whose has homosexual tendencies and fantasies who will project those fantasies on others as an insult.

by Cristina Laila 84 Comments

The Trump curse hit leftie skier Lindsey Vonn yet again after she previously trashed the President.

During an interview with CNN in December, Vonn said she does not compete for the president. When asked how it will feel “competing at the Olympic games for the United States whose president is Donald Trump?” Vonn responded with this:

Lindsey Vonn: “Um, well I hope to represent the people of the United States, not the president.”

Vonn was then asked if she would accept an invitation to the White House if she wins gold, she said,

Lindsey Vonn: “Absolutely not. But you have to win to be invited.”

Lindsey Vonn then promptly injured her back during a World Cup competition, finishing in 24th place.
Now this…
Sports Illustrated reported, “In her first Olympic event in eight years, Lindsey Vonn fails to medal in the Super-G”
